Proven Management Techniques for Your "Other Family" |
|
|
Have
you ever felt like your employees were your kids; your boss,
manager, or supervisor behaved like a parent; or that your
co-workers sometimes acted like children or siblings?
Well,
you were right! Dr. Ivan Lansberg, a Yale University research
fellow, said that:
"Organizations are often likened to machines or living
organisms, but "family" is an overlooked and far
more use full metaphor."
Parenting
the Office is written by Doris and Phil Davidoff
and their two sons, Donald and Doug.

Excerpts from Reviews
 Booklist Magazine (published by the American
Library Association)
"A running commentary from all four Davidoff family
members helps crystallize examples--and keeps us all from
taking ourselves too seriously. Good and useful common sense."
Barbara Jacobs
The Midwest Book Review
"5 Star Review (on amazon.com): Many of the issues
raised in the workplace are also common to family life,
from the desire of the youngest to rival the oldest child
to bullying and rivalry. Parenting The Office equates these
lessons learned from children to business and family life
alike, using case histories to discuss applications and
clarify problems."
Travel Agent Digest
"...for those of you who haven't bought
their [Davidoffs'] latest book, "Parenting the Office"
is a must read."
